Guides lead a compact group down a carved trail, past volcanic rock slabs and ferns, into a shallow canyon where water has shaped smooth walls and bright pools. The final approach opens onto a clear plunge pool—La Leone’s waterfall—where the current teases you to wade in and the light catches suspended spray.
